If you want to use a third part router use this to generate your username and password
The sky router is OK but I do much prefer my own router.
Nice.
I saw you could get it from taking a backup of the settings and opening the file in a text editor.
As long as it can port forward I'm not too bothered, don't actually have my own router to use anyway.
I'll be using my own access point since the Sky router only does Wireless N at ~150mbps whereas my AP does it at 300mbps.
It may have been that I was kicking up a fuss using whatever route possible. Calls, Twitter, Forum, Email. Though I'd wouldn't be too surprised if they hadn't linked it all together as being the same customer each time. When the call centre said the next activation date they could offer was in October I just refused and demanded to speak to a manager, it seemed to work.
I find complaining on Twitter works quite well these days. It's public, and if it was to be picked up by someone with a reasonable following on Twitter it ends up being a bit of a PR nightmare.
Poor speed at the moment. Currently syncing at 4092kbps. I was expecting at least 7000kbps, hopefully it increases over the coming week.
Definitely a step down from the 17000kbps I was getting back at my parents :((
Hopefully they get fibre in my cabinet soon.
